The greatest advantage of Sante's accomodation is the spectacular view on Tuscan hills from the terrace and pool. Photos included in the offer don't do it justice so it was a wonderfull surprise for us. The place is secluded and quiet. Sante, the host is very friendly and helpfull. The only way to access the accomodation is by car and the last 10-15 min part is a winding dirt road through the woods which gets very dusty if it doesn't rain for a while. As for the room itself, it was ok and had everything we needed including a small bathroom, a kitchenette and a very nice terrace. The pool was greadt. We definitely recommend Sante's place.

One of the best hosts! Daniele and Simona are very kind and generous hosts and the place is very beautiful (the views from the terrace and the pool are amazing). The apartment is very big and clean. We missed nothing and if there would've been anything, Simona would have helped us. Simona (who speaks fluent German and English) gave us a warm welcome and is very helpful. She showed us the place and some nearby locations. The location is close to Siena (20 - 30 minutes) and other nice towns. Within 15 minutes you can reach a grocery store and within 5 to 20 minutes many nice restaurants. She also introduced us to their friendly cats (Giga and Bimbo). Later we met Daniele, who is - like Simona - a very nice person. He couldn't stand that we bought eggs from the store for breakfast, so the next morning he gave us some eggs from is own chickens. With hosts like these, you don't want to leave this place and we are already planning our next trip to Simona and Daniele. PS: If you have the chance to try Daniele's selfmade Walnut-Liqeur do it, but don't expect to drive afterwards!

We had a wonderful stay at Podera della Castellina and can recommend this to everybody! The warmth and hospitabilty of Simona and Daniele are unparalled! The photo's do not do justice to the location - it was even more spacious then we figured it to be. It's a 30 minute drive from most well known locations in Tuscany - Siena, San Gimi, etc - so really strategic - but it's very peaceful. With beautiful views and a very nice pool area to relax , as well as a very big terrace where you can enjoy the views, enjoy breakfast or dinner and certainly a glass of wine :-). there is a big supermarket (COOP) and a laundry place just 10-15 minutes away - as well as good quality restaurants - so everything you need closeby. We want to thank Daniele and Simona for the wonderful stay - we were sorry to have to leave. For those worrying about the heat: the walls are thick and keep in the coolness plus a fresh breeze picks up toward sunset, cooling the place down even more - we were here in August - and had some nights where it was actually a bit chilly even..

Simona and Daniele are exceptionnal hosts. Very attentive and kind to make your stay a pleasure. The place is a heaven very cosy and full of charm.thanks a lot

Surrounded by woods and vineyards and overlooking a garden of lavender, this cozy house has a living room with fireplace, large kitchen area, one bedroom. Strategically located to visit Siena and surroundings, San Gimignano, San Galgano, Volterra …

The old warehouses of a historic farmhouse dating back to 1100 house two adjacent apartments overlooking a garden of lavender. From the top of the hill, all afound forests, vineyards and olive groves and an incomparable view beyond. The excitement of the silence of nature that surrounds the farm makes this place precious. The front door opens onto a field of thyme and fennel to the edge of the oak forest, bathed in the light of the full moon or illuminated by thousands of fireflies: The swallows that fill the sky during the day give way in the evening to crickets, until the arrival of the night with unbelievable starry skies. The apartment can accommodate three people, who can become seven/eight if we add the house nextdoor.
Despite being secluded from the heavy traffic, the location allows easy access to many of the most visited but also lesser-known little gems of this part of Tuscany.
Besides enjoying the peace of nature, guests can visit the olive grove, the vineyards and the winery where we produce an excellent Chianti and a great Super Tuscan. For those who prefer to relax with a good read, perhaps about art and local history, the villa offers a well-stocked library where to find a fine a book to flip through under the trees in the garden. For those who like to walk, with or without a guide but definitely without too much effort, we studied trekking and Nordic walking tours that will take you to explore the area starting right from home. last but not least, if the past is what thrills you, between the owners hides an archaeologist ... available to organize guided tours.
The owners are ready to help guests in solving any problem, as well as to provide suggestions and indications to axlore the surroundings ... and are always happy to have a chat over a cutting board of local products and a glass of wine

The "casine" of Reniere are surrounded by nature. You cannot miss the magic of fireflies in June evenings, the rest in the shade of an oak in the summer afternoon, the scent of the must during the harvest, the colors of the forest and the vineyard on the first autumn and the starry sky in the clear winter nights.
There's no public transport to and from the Reniere...a car is the most convenient solution to be indipendent On request we can arrange transfers to and from Siena or to the nearest airport (Firenze Peretola), and in Rosia (the nearest village) bicycles for rent are available.
A similar house is nextdoor, just in case you might like to have a wider group of friends.
We can arrange a pick-up from the nearest railway stations (Siena or Poggibonsi)

Great house and very hospitable host. Guaranteed to exceed your expectations. Thanks, Davide!

SergeiMay 2016

Highlight of our Italy trip was staying here. Rustic farm and vineyard yet totally modern accommodations. Davide was the most gracious host with his tour of the estate and a wine tasting. We used this location as a great base for exploring Tuscany on day trips. Perfect!!

JamesSeptember 2016

We LOVED our stay at Davide's vineyard. The place is incredibly picturesque and really functional. Located really close to Siena and surrounding Tuscany. We highly recommend!!!!

Davide is a wonderful host and the medieval farm is absolutly amazing. We had wonderful time here thanks for the friendly hosting and the beauty and silence of the nature, however the weather was rainy and cold almost the whole time. Davide has several tips and recommendations for restaurants and programs - selected with very good taste. To tell the truth, I did´t want to leave... :) Davide, we will definitely come back, thank you!!! :)

MariaJanuary 2016

Our stay at Davide's was an absolute pleasure. There was not a single thing missing from our room that we needed. He had a hair dryer..first aid stuff...umbrellas...you name it he had it. Davide in his own rights is a gentleman. We arrived at noon and had no groceries to make lunch. Within seconds he had brought over fresh vegetables and pasta sauce. Thank you Davide for this kind gesture. The cottage we stayed in is gorgeous. Very comfortable and can u believe it Hot water on demand and plenty of it.There were extra blankets if we needed them...which we did. We walked through his Vineyard...what a delight So far of all the air bnb places we have stayed at...Davide's is the best. We will definitely come back for a longer stay.

SunielOctober 2016

This Tuscan retreat is far more beautiful than the photos, and Davide (and his dog Anita) are the perfect hosts! This is so clearly a host who participates in this community for the love of it. We arrived without a car expecting to come and go on foot, but Davide insisted on driving us where we needed to go. We had an absolutely wonderful time exploring the countryside, vineyards and the town of Rosia -- and are already planning our return. We are so grateful.

WARNING: THIS IS A GROUND FLOOR ROOM IN THE COUNTRY, SO THERE MAY BE …
… insects! [obviously not fleas or bed bugs!!!!]

This large room has a double bed, cooking corner, minibathroom, two windows looking on to apple trees and veg gardens and forest and afternoon sun, big double door in courtyard for morning sun. Size 5 x 5 m. Car essential (7 km from shops). The tiny hilltop village of Tonni is in the middle of a protected forest and was built in medieval times from local stone. NO TV, no radio, no internet.
In May 2016 I am looking for someone to water my vegetable garden for 5 days. 15 km from SIENA (Tuscany)
There is a shared space in front of your door - a sort of off street courtyard/garden. You can put chairs out for breakfast and to enjoy the morning sun. The neighbours are very nice and friendly. I live upstairs.
I will show you my garden on the other side of your room where you can go and sit privately. We don't have fences and you can wander without people wondering who you are or what you are doing.
I am almost always around.

Unique natural setting with many many historical buildings (towers, castles, churches …) Beautiful river. Beautiful landscape.
No public transport. Off street parking in a special area. Tonni has no through traffic. The road ends in our square.
Don' t come if insects freak you out. We have them in our houses too.

We've been very nicely welcomed. Helen had left us vegetables and fruits from the garden and was always available for information about the surroundings. The village is small and cute, and all the neighbors are friendly. The room is nice and true to the description. It is a very good location to travel around in Tuscany.

Our stay at Helen's appartmant was wonderful. We immediatly felt at home and we didn't want to leave! Helen is super helpful and friendly, she gave us a lot of tips of what we can do in the area. When we arrived she already prepared our breakfast and we had homemade tomatosauce and jam in the fridge. In our oppinion the appartment looks even better in reallife than on the pictures. We would recommend her appartment to anyone!

JonasAugust 2016

If you want to live off the beaten track and get away from the city lights this will be an ideal pits top Helen was very helpful and made our stay a very pleasant one.

SomSeptember 2016

Helen is a lovely and amazing host and person. She warmly welcomed us into her place and accommodated us with more than we expected. The house is located in a lovely village which allowed us to enjoy the beautiful surroundings as well as travel around Tuscany with ease. The apartment is very cozy and beautiful and it also comes with an awesome new bed!!

SoroushJuly 2016

We initially registered for three days at Helen's place but decided right away to stay for 10 days. Helen is a wonderful person and an awesome host! She supplied us with vegetables and herbs from her garden, spring water and tips about the region. We loved the evening chats with her and the peaceful and friendly atmosphere she radiates. When we had to leave, it felt like leaving a friend. Her appartement is simple but romantic and clean. We liked it a lot!

Perfect for a couple, in an old house of the XIII century, inside Merse Nature Reserve. Near Siena, San Galgano, one hour from Florence or the seaside. You can combine the visit of the cities with the contact with nature. You can eat in the gardner.

The ground floor apartment overlooking the garden is large and comfortable, consists of a large room divided into sleeping, dining and study, kitchen and bathroom.
The garden is large with an area dedicated for use.
The surrounding beautiful nature is ideal for walking or, for those who are fit, for beautiful cycling tours. You can reach historical sites and medieval villages. The nearby Petriolo and Rapolano may turn out a lazy and healthy alternative.
I am available to help guests find the most suggestive itineraries and provide all information necessary for a peaceful holiday.

We are in the Alto Merse Nature Reserve, it is easy to see wild animals and the starry sky. The walks take us to ancient towers and remind us of the pilgrims along the Via Francigena.
The Florence airport is just over an hour from home, Pisa airport an hour and 40.

Giulia was a wonderful host making us feel home right away. The place is quiet and cosy. We appreciated a lot giulias recommendations where to eat and what to see.

dorotheeSeptember 2015

We really loved our stay in this breathtaking appartment! Giulia was a welcoming host who gave us graet tips of thins to do in the area. We are looking forward to come back here some day...

We stayed 5 nights at Guilia's place. We very much enjoyed our stay and Guilia made us feel welcome. The place is at a charming remote area, so you definitely need a car if you would like to get around there. You can make nice excursions to the neighboring towns / villages. Perfect place if you want to have a romantic get-away.

Very nice place. A great place to unwind after touring the cities of Italy. This is a great location for cycling. Friendly staff and rooms were clean.

MarcMay 2016

We were lucky to get the last appartemnt available at Marcello's place and really enjoyed our stay in this beautiful property. We were travelling with 2 kids and had the 2 bedroom Granary apartment. If you have a look at their own website, all the different apartments/houses are show in more detail, so you know what you are getting. We ideally would have been in one of the other apartments, but as we booked late and it was peak season there were no others available. Marcello was helpful and courteous in regards to the booking and quick to respond to requests or quires . Being July it was very hot everywhere and because of this the loft bedroom was very hot, even at night. We were given a fan when we asked about shifting to a cooler one, which definitely helped. Breakfast on the terrace next to the pool was a nice way to start the day.

RogerJuly 2016

Fascinating place and luxury flat. Great breakfast and lovely people. Very helpful to guide in finding the place by car.

KarstenMay 2016

The apartment actually belongs to a Hotel. However, the employees were very gentle and the hotel setting with the building is very nice! Nothing really around next to the hotel so you need a car during your stay. In the neighboorhood (say within 20km), you have lots of villages to detect in the Toscana and visit vineyards - and yes, detect the restaurants and local food ..

The place at Sante's house is wonderful and great, with a gorgeous view and a nice garden. We had a beautiful week in his apartment and it was also well located to visit Siena, Firenze, Volterra and other nice Cities in Tuscany. Sante and his wife were very friendly and quiet hosts and were helpful if needed.

Podere La Castellina is a little piece of heaven in Tuscany. Daniele and his wife Simona were beautiful hosts. They were very generous with their time and very helpful with directions and places to see. They are truly beautiful people and I highly recommend their place to everyone who wants to enjoy an idyllic setting close to Siena.

LouiseOctober 2016

We stayed 2 nights in this lovely apartment in the Tuscan country side. Finding this hidden gem was not that easy since no GPS will know that gravel road but Daniele met us in the nearest town and we followed them. Once arrived we were mesmerized by the beautiful landscape and the traditional but recently renovated apartments. The kids enjoyed the pool very much. Daniele gave us excellent tips for local restaurants and sites to see. Overall we were very happy staying at this place and can only highly recommend it.

PeterJuly 2015

Daniele and Simone were incredible hosts (too formal a term) they left an indelible mark on our hearts and our beautiful, spectacular memories. The house was breathtaking, the location incredible, the welcome was so genuine and a celebration of our arrival. We were homesick for Tipico and our wonderful friends, Daniele and Bella Simone by the time we reached Venice. I would encourage any family / friends to stay at this beautiful site and spend time with these super hosts. The thrill of our trip was this part at Tipico.

Our stay with Daniele and Simona was a great experience. After a day of travelling the local area it was great place to come back and relax. Our children really enjoyed the surrounds. Magnificent views and sunsets

GlennJuly 2015

We had a great time and Daniele and Simona made us feel very welcome. Friendly ambiance, classic Italian atmosphere. The apartment was spacious (2 bathrooms!), clean and well equipped. On our last night we had a real 'European' rendez-vous at the terrace with Swiss, French, Dutch, Belgian fellow visitors enjoying home-made pizza's from Daniele (super!). We also tasted Nocino, which Daniele offered us one of our evenings on the terrace. Great environment with Siena and Florence nearby. We highly recommend staying here (perfectamundo ;-)).

MarjanAugust 2016

Daniele and Simona were the perfect hosts! Podere La Castellina is a beautiful place to stay with great views and the perfect location for Siena. Looking forward to visiting again.

We've spent a wonderful weekend in MariaRosa's beautiful home. The apartment is fully equipped, very clean and incredibly beautiful decorated, situated in a very quiet and green area but still just around the corner of many Tuscan cities like Siena, San Gimigniano and Volterra. MariaRosa is a great host, she welcomed us very warmly, had prepared everything for us and answered all questions we had. This place is highly recommendable!

We were delayed, both by flight and hire car problems and didn't arrive until nearly midnight, four or five hours later than intended. MariaRosa was kind enough to wait for us and gave us a warm welcome. The apartment is very cosy and in a lovely location. It was ideal for us. We found it without too much difficulty, but, given the rural location, it would be better to arrive before dark. There are seats and a table in a covered area looking out on the garden, which is just lovely for breakfast.

AdamMay 2015

Everything was perfect in MariaRosa's house. She is really nice, the house and the garden are charming you feel confortable... It is peaceful and quiet.... You can go on trust! Thank you MariaRosa! Margaux

We had stayed at this beautiful place for 5 nights and absolutely loved it. In fact, we loved everything about it. The place is very cosy and comfortable and it looks even better in reality than in the photos. The location is perfect to explore Tuscany and Rosia which is near by has a few grocery shops etc. MariaRosa advised us where to get some local wine and it was very good. Also, you can enjoy the hot spring of Petriolo which is a short distance from the place. I absolutely loved the peace and quiet around the house. We visited it during the spring so everything was blooming and the breakfast outside in the sunshine was divine. The bed also was extremely comfortable and large. One evening MariaRosa invited us to join her and her friends by the fire and it was one in the life experience. They brought some home made food, some wine and we all had a lovely jam session by the fire. I had never felt so welcomed and at ease even I can speak only very little Italian. Would you get anything like that staying in a large hotel? MariaRosa is not only a wonderful host but she is a very genuine and warm person. I will always remember her with the deepest admiration. I cannot recommend this lovely place enough! Thank you.

To give a description with three simple words: amazing, beautiful, secure I used airbnb the first time and I am so happy that I did it. Vasudha is a wonderful person, so warm and open. She showed us everything with joy and gave us the feeling to be home in the first second. She welcomed us with fresh sunflowers on the kitchen table and a variety of croissants, bread, butter, bisquits, eggs, juice, milk, sausage .... for a splendid breakfast. Even a battery of waterbottles waited for us to satisfy our thirst. The flat is an amazing peace of its own. Every single detail is choosen with so much love and care. The fabrics, the pieces of furniture, all the plants which skirt the windows from outside, a dream coming to reality. Every day I discovered something new. It was like living in a romantic film about Tuscany. Even the sink and the shower in the bathroom were mosaicked. We had a well equipped lovely kitchen with a big fridge, a big sofa in front of a big open fireplace, tv and two pretty bedrooms, where we were awakened by the sunshine sprinkeling sundrops over our happy faces. There is a nice garden with several beautiful places to have breakfast, lunch or dinner or relax in deckchairs within blooming nature. The pictures are true even they nowhere can show enough the beauty and wonderful atmosphere. The only thing to think about is the hight of the shower. If you are really tall like my son, he is 1,96 m it is really difficult to shower and the internet didn't work. But for my husband and us worked everything fine and we really appreciated to be NOT availlable for this heavenlike week. The position of Podere Causa is perfectly situated in the middle of Tuscany and you can easily reach all the beautiful places, little towns and famous sights, even take a bath in the sea in Barratti within one hour. You'll find Podere Causa easily on the road to Pentolina. Vasudha answered within less than an hour everytime, it was so helpful and I always felt save and secure, especially because it was the first time I booked a place with airbnb. I recommend it highly. Thank you so much Vasudha for sharing your unique, peaceful and cozy piece of art. Definitly I will come back.

ReniSeptember 2015

Vasudha was very accommodating and tried to help in way she could even when we were due to arrive after midnight.

PhilipJuly 2014

The apartment was absolute divine. The photos don't do it justice. It's rustic, artsy and spacious. The artist community are all very friendly and we had some lovely nights in the garden. Vasudha was so wonderful upon arrival. She gave us lots of recommendations and left us a little food to get us started :) The place is wonderfully located. 20 minutes from the magnificent Siena (do not miss) and there are various darling small towns to explore. Florence is about 80 minutes away for a day trip too. All in all we had a wonderful stay and could not recommended the place more. Thank you Vasudha.. See you next summer x

In the countryside of Montagnola Senese is situated Podere Meletrino, a stone farmhouse of the XIII century surronded by a private garden. The property is close to the Basilica of San Galgano, a 30-minute drive from Siena and an hour from the sea.

Podere Meletrino is ideal for those who want a relaxing holiday and a close contact with nature, the portion reserved for guests is an apartment of 200 sqm furnished with antique furniture and paintings to keep unchanged the classic style of the ancient Tuscan villas.
The accommodation comprises a large living room with fireplace , a dining room with TV area and armchairs , a kitchen equipped with all accessories , two bathrooms, one with bath and one with shower , two bedrooms with double beds and a bright , spacious loggia, also used as a bedroom, with a double bed and a sofa bed to make use of two additional seats.
Outside at the guests' disposal there are also:
private garden
parking
Wood oven
barbecue
a pergola ideal for dining or relaxing in the garden.
Independent access to exclusive use for guests.
The owners will always be present in the other half of the estate, adjacent to the portion dedicated to the guests, and therefore available but not intrusive!

Among the advantages of Meletrino there is undoubtedly its location. Totally immersed in nature, our property is a unique place where one could retire in full freedom and autonomy surrounded only by the sounds of nature and above all far from the smog and stress of everyday life.
The perfect place to enjoy long walks outdoors and admire the typical flora and fauna of the Montagnola Senese (Site of Community Interest).
Just 15 minutes away is the first village with all the necessary services.
Nearby the Podere Meletrino can visit the Abbey of San Galgano, the Montarrenti Castle, the Ponte della Pia, the Pieve di Ponte allo Spino, the Lecceto Hermitage and the Castle of Belcaro.
In the neighborhood, one of the main locations are: Siena (31km), Monteriggioni (33km), Colle di Val d'Elsa (25 km) and San Gimignano (39Km).
In about an hour's drive you can reach Florence (70km), Volterra (43Km), Pienza (70 km), Montalcino (57km) Montepulciano (85Km), but also the major Etruscan archaeological sites of Tuscany (like Roselle, Vetulonia, Baratti and Tirli) and the seaside resorts of the Tyrrhenian Coast (including Follonica, Castiglione della Pescaia and Punta Ala).
Just 32 km Petriolo.
The property is full of olive trees, fruit trees and herbs. Will be possible, depending on availability, taste the products of our land.

Barbara and her entire family made us feel like a part of their family for our entire stay. Finding the "right" place in Tuscany rural area can be difficult, but this was exactly what we were hoping for. Isolated in the mountains of Tuscany, on a beautiful stretch of land that overlooks the valleys and vineyards of the land. We had fresh fruit to pick from and Barbara was able to book activities for us, like horseback riding and wine tasting. They have an extremely homely house, and will even offer to cook for you one night if you're lucky enough. If you are looking to truly get away from the hustle of the cities and the commercialism of hotels, I highly recommend staying here. It was truly a unique and true Tuscan experience. Make sure to survey the land and catch the unbelievable sunsets and even see some wild horses or boars riding through the forests. Please consider renting a car that can handle dirt roads as you will need to navigate through country roads. Siena is about a 30 minute drive from this house, but is a fantastically gorgeous drive.

We were welcomed with typical italian warmth and gracious hospitality. We felt immediately at home in this most beautiful place! It was beyond our expectations in every way. The house was very spacious, clean, nicely furnished and well equipped in all ways. There was everything needed to make you feel comfortable. A total winner — from the house to the private garden and the overall beauty of the surrounding Tuscan countryside! Highly recommended to everyone!

The place looks exactly as you can see on the pictures; Tuscany style, everything is simple but comfortable. The view from the pool area-incredible and the pool itself big enough to have nice swim. We also liked our terrace under vine leaves pergola. And it's soooo quiet....We had really great time!

Peace & quiet, swifts & fireflies, scents of thyme lavender & fennel, the oak forest, the wine we produce. Here is what capture all the guests at this cozy and comfortable little house built in a former warehouse of the medieval hamlet of Le Reniere

Outside, the peaceful location, the light, smells, the swallows, the buzz of insects, the night full of stars and fireflies. Inside, the cozy comfort of a living room with a large sofa by the fireplace, the kitchen with all appliances, the bedroom of the Forties and the bathroom ... with shower and turkish bath to relax.
Behind the house, the old wine cellar, the core of the winery that produces our excellent Chianti and LaPìa, a great Super Tuscan, from grapes of our own vineyards. A little further on, a charming garden around the well at the foot of the villa, where to read and take a nap.
In front of the house, at the edge of the field, the oak forest of Le Reniere, where wandering is beautiful in all seasons, but at this time is even more fascinating and surprising, walking along fields of wild cyclamen in company of deers.
Around, a few kilometers away, all of Tuscany, from the wild Montagnola Senese to the city of the Palio and beyond.
Anyone who chooses to spend a few days in Le Reniere also chooses when to interact with those who live there ... we can chat over a glass of wine but you can also have the feeling of being alone.
However there is always someone to solve even the slightest problem or just to exchange ideas on how to spend the day.

The house overlooks a meadow of wild thyme and fennel, and just off the the forest of oaks. You cannot miss the magic of fireflies in June evenings, a doze in the shade of an oak on a summer afternoon, the scent of the must during the harvest, the colors of the woods and vineyards in the early autumn and the clear starry sky in winter.
There's no public transport to and from the Reniere...a car is the most convenient solution to be indipendent On request we can arrange transfers to and from Siena or to the nearest airport (Firenze Peretola), and in Rosia (the nearest village) bicycles for rent are available.
A similar house is nextdoor...just in case you might want to have a wider group of friends.
We can arrange a pick-up from the nearest railway stations (Siena or Poggibonsi)

Davide is a host you would want as a foreigner - helpful, knowledgable and extremely passionate about Tuscany and wanting to make his guests walk away having thoroughly enjoyed their time in such a beautiful part of the world. He really goes the extra mile to help you out and make you feel welcome. We had an excellent original wine tasting session set up at short notice with typical snacks served - giving us the feeling of being part of the family - so relaxed and unpretentious. The description of "medieval cozy house on a farm" is a true reflexion of the set up. Thanks for letting us experience that.

frankly speaking, the house is a bit far from city center and not easy to find; however, davide is such a good host. he drove to siena train station to take us back, always responded to our needs, and even took time to give a little tour around cellar and vineyard. the house is tranquil, neat and has everything you need. if you wanna a peaceful vacation, that's the place!

This is a marvellous and magical place, hidden in the Tuscan vineyards near Siena. This is the perfect place to find peace and quiet, read, or to go for a walk through the Tuscan woods. It's also close to places like Siena, Colle di Val d'Elsa and San Gimignano, so it's a perfect base to do some sightseeing there. When arriving, we were greeted by the lovely smell of lavender, mint and fennel; you don't have to go far to get your cooking herbs! And wine is not far either: the apartment is part of a large winery estate. There is no better way than ending the day with a glass of the Le Reniere Chianti wine or the LaPia Cabernet Sauvignon right from the vineyard next to you! These are excellent wines and normally found in fancy London restaurants. The apartment is as described; the pictures don't do the place justice: it's beautiful. We stayed here with 4 people, using the bed couch in the living room, the double/twin beds in the bedroom and an extra bed in the living room. This worked out very well. It was also a real pleasure to get to know Davide. He has been extremely helpful during our stay. He is also a very interesting person to talk with. Besides running the winery he is also active as an archeologist, working on several excavations across Italy. Two of our group were historians, and this was a perfect match! Davide went to great lengths to make sure that our stay was as convenient as possible. I am not surprised that he is mentioned on Airbnb as a Superhost. We did not bring a car and Davide was very helpful with our logistics, picking us up and dropping us off at the train station. He even took time to show us around the area! Very memorable as well was the tour through the winery that he gave us, as well as the wine tasting afterwards. I can highly recommend this place. This is a stay we will very much remember. (And not just only for the wine we brought home!) P.S. While a car is definitely handy while staying here, with the right preparations and expectations it is possible to stay here without bringing a car, if you don't mind walking and cooking your own meals! The village of Rosia is a 40-45 min walk away and has several buses a day to Siena and other places in the area (e.g. Brenna, a lovely place to swim in the river). There is also a supermarket in Rosia. However, make sure to check the bus schedule on (SENSITIVE CONTENTS HIDDEN) Maps in advance, as some buses stop running quite early!

Davide was a fantastic host! We felt truly lucky to have found his beautiful property. The pictures are accurate but do not do the place justice. It is so much more beautiful and welcoming in person! There is something magical about the little garden just outside the door, and the surrounding woods were definitely a great place to wander after we spent a busy week in Rome and then another few days in Grossetto. There even was an American style coffee maker which we had not found anywhere else. The bathroom was beautiful and bright. The hot water worked like a charm. The bed was very comfortable. We enjoyed spending lazy mornings on the couch playing chess with the windows open and the smell of the flowers breezing on in. Davide was so helpful with everything! He gave us two full pages of information on the surrounding areas and hot spots. He also gave us a personal tour of the vineyard which was amazing! This was our favorite spot in all of our two weeks in Italy because of Davide's hospitality and the beautiful location. Great experience! Can't wait to go back some day!

We had a fantastic summer holiday here with our 11 month year old son. Leonardo and Marina welcomed us with a pizza and fruit/vegetables from their garden. They had set up a baby bed and a baby chair for us, without us having asked, and helped us with our daily questions about the area. They are superbly considerate hosts. The flat is basic but cosy and with everything one needs. The garden is sublime, with a hammock, shaded and private areas and an absolutely amazing view.

Marina was a great host. Her house is a dream house, everything was wonderful. Thank you, Marina.

We loved our stay in sovicille, so much so that we extended our stay the moment we walked through the door. The apartment is very well equipped with everything you need, martina and Leonardo are fantastic hosts and lovely people. We would deffinately recommend staying here!

The place is up in the mountain but easy to find if you follow the directions.The view is gorgeous, we use the barbecue place at night and it was amazing. The place is nice, have everything you need and very clean. As host they are super incredible, really helpful and welcoming, they drove us to the village the first night we arrived late to show us where to eat and even invited us to their house to see champions league final match and share a beer. Had a really good time!!

We loved to stay here! Beautiful garden where you feel comfortable and had enough privacy. The appartement itself was clean and cosy, and had everything you need. Leonardo was a lovely host! We didn't want to go home. Thanks for everything! Note: There where a lot of cats in this garden so watch out if you're allergic.

MarijkeAugust 2016

It was just wonderfull! The beautifull, authentic stonehouse is located in a small, romantic village, ca. 20 min away from Siena. The appartement is super clean and very well equipet- there is everything you need and its charmingly furnished. The guests have a own Garden, from where you can enjoy the most amazing view ever! Just sitting there, relaxing and looking into the wide tuscanic landscape- a perfect hideaway! The hosts are very friendly and helpfull if you need anything, but they always respect the privacy of their guests. There are many cats on the property, laying in the sun and spreding the aura of "dolce Vita"! :) We wouldn't want to go and we'd love to come again!

Just 18km. from Siena the Granaio is perfect for a couple who want to visit our beautiful area or just relax and enjoy the peaceful and beautiful surroundings.

Perfect for a couple but we can add an extra single bed. Spacious and comfortable, with a large bedroom and living area.
Large garden and small pool in olive grove behind the house with sun beds.
A car is necessary.

We had a fantastic stay at the beautiful Santa Barbara! We felt we were welcomed as if we were family, as Mario and Jean are really hospitable, warm and friendly people. We were taken good care of during our stay! They recommended us places to go, and took the time to a nice chat over a glass of wine! They also have two adorable dogs that are easy love. (We already miss them as well) The nature in this area is really beautiful, and you probably will get to see a lot of fabulous animals along the roads! There are a lot of nice places to visit in the area, both small and big villages, good places to eat and different activities to choose between. We stayed in an authentic tuscan house that were well equipped, with beautiful surroundings. We highly recommend this place if you like to stay in a peaceful place with character in the countryside, not too far away from the beautiful city Siena, and other tuscan pearls such as Radicondoli, Casole d'Elsa, Mensano and Monteriggioni. Staying here made our first tuscan vacation perfect. Thank you! Hope to see you again soon!

Mario and Jean have been the sweetest and the most helpful hosts during our stay. The house is lovely and well furnished. They even provide a baby bed for our 1-year old son. If you are looking for a charming, and quiet place that feels like home and from where you can visit Toscania, this is the place!

MarionSeptember 2015

WOW!! I wish I can find the right words to thank Mario and Jane for the great experience they have offered us. First of all, by staying at Mario's place you will have the opportunity to meet one of the most friendly and welcoming "Toscanian" ever (e.g. even though we arrived quite late in the night Mario welcomed us with a glass of white wine at his own kitchen table). Moreover, the house is located in the middle of a green valley and it is one of the very few properties in the area, which we found incredibly inspiring (lucky Mario!). The swimming pool in the garden offers a stunning view on the valley and it's just perfect after a day spent visiting Siena or doing some wine tasting in the Chianti region (you can ask Mario if you haven't decided where to go yet). The two dogs are super funny and relaxed so don't worry about them. I also think that the pictures do not really convey the beauty of the property and its location. I will definitely come back and encourage you to spend some time here to discover the genuine and authentic life in Toscana. Quite an Airbnb hidden gem!!

Staying in Mario's and Jean's apartment in the middle of Tuscany was a great experience that we recommend everybody. The house is located on a hill with a perfect view. It has an enormous garden around the house, relax chairs to enjoy the sun next to the pool. The apartment is perfectly fit for a couple. The kitchen is well equiped, it has a good shower and it is clean. We used the place as a start point to explore the area. It's a short drive to Siena, Chianti area and you can explore the country side by foot. Maybe even the best of all was the hospitality of Jean and Mario, who live next to the apartment. They are a lovely, welcoming couple who truly know what hospitality means. They do everything to make you feel comfortable in a very natural way. It was very handy for us we could communicate in English with them since we don't speak a word of Italian unfortunately. PS if you're not so fond of dogs, don't let this be a reason not to go. The 2 dogs are lovely, not agressive or jumping to you and they are very well raised.

Mario and Jean are friendly hosts, the communication with them is OK. Mario is dealing with the guests, he speaks English very good. The house is located in the nature, it is in a beautiful place. We saw animals on the roads at the evening, there were some boars and fox walking by. Siena and Tuscany are easily accessable from here, we used the place as a starting point for our tours. The apartment itself is nice. On the pictures, there is a washing machine can be seen in the kitchen, it was not there, but otherwise, everything else is according to the photos. The pool is cool, we used it, and the view is perfect.
